Beer is such an objective thing... most are an acquired taste, and often one can lose that taste.
I used to love Stella Artois... but I hadn't drank one in a long time. I had one on the weekend and it was not very good anymore. There was nothing wrong with the beer, I just lost my taste for it. I'm sure with some effort, I'd like it again.
However, I tried Samuel Adams Honey Porter in the States as well as about 6 other US exclusive brews, and it was hands down the lousiest. It was like a mix of Rickards Red, Rickards Honey Brown and a bad Stout. Just awful. It was painful for us to finish the 6-pack. It was definitely not a good decision.
The others I tried were Miller Chill, Budweiser Select, Michelob Amber Bock, Michelob Ultra, Coors Original and Miller High Life. All of those were passable to excellent beers.
